Abstract

The present investigation entitled Effect of organic and inorganic manures on growth and yield in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). was conducted at Agriculture Research Farm of Brahmanand post graduate college, Rath ( southern U.P.) on Rath, Mahoba road during rabi of 2022- 23.  The experiment was laid out into Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with 3 replication and consisted. Four organic treatments viz. O0 = Control (No Organic sources), O1= Vermi compost @ 2.5t ha-1, O2 = Compost @ 5t ha-1, O3 =Liquid consortia @ 250ml /50 kg seed 5 and four inorganic treatments viz. I0 = Control (no inorganic sources), I1 = Nano urea @ 250ml/50 kg seed, I2 (60:30:30) NPK kg ha-1, I3 = ( 90:45:45) NPK kg  ha-1. The result of the study revealed that maximum Initial Plant population (24.44 and 28.22), Height of main shoot (91.06 and 89.89cm) Number of functional leaves(10.87 and 10.65 ) Number of tillers per plant (3.87 and 3.65), Length of spike per plant ( 11.65 and 10.75),  Number of grain per plant (52.38 and 45.46) Weight Grain of ear (2.11 and 2.02 gm), Number of fertile spikelets per plant (5.02 and 4.), Number of sterile spikelets per plant ( 20.66 and 19.86 ), Test weight (39.12 and 39.09 g),  Grain yield, (44.36 and 45.04q ha-1), Straw yield (76.57 and 74.05q ha-1 ), Harvest Index (42.79 and 44.45 %) was reported in O2 = Compost @ 5t ha-1 and I1 = Nano urea @ 250ml/50 kg seed respectively.
